Just In Time For Back-To-School: Get Rid of Your Sleep Deficit

I recently returned from a medical conference where one of the lectures was on repairing sleep deficits.   Something I was very interested in because I’ve always been a poor sleeper all of my life. The take home point that really stuck in my mind, and now when I have a sleepless night I remind myself of this again and again so that I don’t stress out too much about it, was: You are only ever one night away from a good night of sleep.   It doesn’t matter how long you’ve struggled with insomnia or how big your sleep …

A new study shows what we can already *feel* — — that trauma in childhood affects our physical health as an adult.     Our cells, organs, tissues, physical body holds on to the effects of emotional trauma and this energetic tension literally changes how our body is able to function.

Grounding Balances Your Hormones Automatically (Plus 6 More Ideas)

Today let’s talk about the messengers of our body (our hormones!) and how grounding balances them for you, automatically.   Adrenal function, thyroid function, sex hormones, even leaky gut — it’s all interconnected. Your energy level, your sex drive, your daily rhythm, how good you feel each day — it’s all improved by getting grounded. There is a cascade of inflammation and auto-immune signaling in these interconnected hormonal pathways that ultimately lead to thyroid issues, adrenal depletion and out-of-wack reproductive hormones that cause us to feel less than our best.
